Page-Up/PageDown - quick jump between menus Home/End - Root and last sub menu. Right-Click - move around the screen. Requirements:· GNOME· gtk 2.12· compiz-devel and a composited environment (i.e compiz, etc.)What's New in This Release:· The menu now uses the blur plugin by default; to blur underneath the menus. This can be turned off with an optional parameter. What's New in This Release: · 3rd September 2008 - Fixed an error than some people where experiencing during construction. Thanks to everyone who provided a stack trace. · 27th August 2008 - Added a reflection effect by default. This stresses the processor somewhat; but it can be easily turned off (see below). Also added a highlight around the edge incase it's displayed over a black background. · 25th August 2008 - Made any 'overlapped' portions of a menu by a sub menu translucent by 75%. This helps to stop the previous visual ambiguity with overlapped menus items merging with the current menu items. Also changed the small triangle which denoted a sub menu into a glyph to make it easier to differentiate between applications and menu types. · 24th August 2008 - Added the ability to specify the emblem to use for the 'root' menu. By default it's the GNOME logo; but it can now be changed to allow for a specific distro logo. An Ubuntu one has been provided as an example. See the 'Application Options' section on how to specify your own. · 23rd August 2008 - Changed the right mouse button click functionality slightly so it now aligns the currently shown menu to the click coordinate. Also fixed a bug so it warps the mouse to the centre of the screen when the root menu is initially shown. · 28th July 2008 - The menu now uses the blur plugin by default; to blur underneath the menus. This can be turned off with an optional parameter (see below). · 25th July 2008 - Fixed an error that sometimes occurred if the angle for a submenu was over 360.0 i.e. 360.6. This was a bugger to hunt down as it didn't ever happen for me, though I got reports that assertions were occasionally happening for other people in this scenario.
